A Tapestry of Life

About the Book

In every family, each generation is tied to the ones which came before by threads of shared stories, common experience and inherited genes. In A Tapestry of Life: The Ties That Bind, Ethyl Katz unfolds the weaving which binds four generations of her family, from Russia through Niagara Falls, Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles. As in her previous work, the highly regarded I Couldn't Wait to Tell You, she offers true stories which shine on the threads of life with the humor, sorrow, simplicity and nuances of what makes-and shapes-a family. With an observant eye, Ethyl Katz lays out the themes and moments joining generations together across years and miles and, in the process, revealing to every family the ties that bind them together.
